About Alisa
Alisa Roberts is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Utah with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, respectful care for people facing relationship strains, trauma, parenting challenges, mood concerns, and life transitions. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts sessions to each person’s needs.
Sessions are shaped to address stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, and problems with sleep or eating. Alisa also supports people coping with grief, addiction, intimacy issues, and compassion fatigue.
How Alisa works
Her practice pays attention to attachment and adoption-related issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and communication problems that make day-to-day life harder. She helps people who are navigating divorce and separation, veteran and armed forces issues, or the aftermath of sexual assault and abuse. Body image, codependency, impulsivity, and self-esteem are also common focuses.
Alisa’s approach is straightforward and compassionate. She works with each person to build a plan that fits their goals and situation. Clients can expect a mix of talking, practical strategies, and problem-solving based on what’s helping or holding them back.
She offers sessions in English and provides several online formats to fit different needs. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules in line with the therapist’s availability.

Approaches that guide online work and practical care
Alisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-life change. One common approach she applies emphasizes understanding attachment and relationship patterns to improve communication and reduce conflict. This helps people who feel stuck in repeating relationship cycles or who struggle with trust and intimacy.Another frequently used strategy targets trauma and post-traumatic stress by helping people process painful memories and build coping skills. This work often combines careful storytelling with concrete tools to manage distressing symptoms and lessen their impact on daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful and what isn’t, so the process stays focused and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat works well for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives.
